Another opportunity to swoon at Mr Morrissey. What a delight. I shall be paying close attention.
Madame D: hope you liked it. I shall keep watching although there was a lot of deja vu and the character of the lascivious counsellor was laid on with a trowel. I must go back to the book.
Ooh, yes, I love those period pieces. I can get lost in them, especially on rainy days.
I did watch it, but I'm not sure it'll hold my attention, it seemed a bit formulaic. So much of it seems anachronistic too - if I knew that it had all been in the book (which I haven't read) I'd be more forgiving than if it's been mucked about with. I do know that the local landed gentry, however impoverished, would have spoken RP and not Yorkshire. I'm not saying a thing against a local accent, just that it's the sort of inaccuracy that grates.
Penelope Wilton can do no wrong at any time, however. Lovely to see her on the screen.
GG: and there is a dearth of watchable drama just now.
Z: there are echoes of Jane Eyre, Rebecca, James Herrriot and just about every good book and film popular in the forties and fifties.
I really must read it again to check my facts but I think the hero was a farmer who married into gentry, so his accent would be correct.
I'm in it for the love story:)
But I do find the Huggins bit offensive.
We don't have this here yet---But I am hoping we will. I just watched the 2nd episode of "ANY HUMAN HEART", last night...They show it here in hour and a half chuncks, so there is one more Episode to go. Very well done...! Have you seen this Pat?
Naomi: yea - I had forgotten the title but I now remember - I did enjoy it.
I sat through it because Maggie was enjoying it while snuggled into me on the sofa and I didn't want to disturb her. But I didn't begin to feel involved until the last 10 minutes or so
Kim: yes that was where there was just a hint of Mr Rochester's hidden secret.
